Abide with me! fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide!
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me.
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide!
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me.

Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;
Earth’s joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see;
O Thou who changest not, abide with me.
Earth’s joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see;
O Thou who changest not, abide with me.

Come not in terrors, as the King of kings;
But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings:
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea;
Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me.
But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings:
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea;
Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me.

I need Thy presence every passing hour:
What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s power?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, oh, abide with me.

Through cloud and sunshine, oh, abide with me.

I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless:
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness:
Where is death’s sting? where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.

Been battling through several illnesses the last 1year of my life, it's 1:50am & I woke up with a start with this song in my spirit.
I'm soothed, i'm comforted, my fears & anxieties are allayed. I no more dread the darkness of life's last moments. My priority has shifted from wanting so much to stay alive to going through my dine moments in peace & with God's reassuring presence.
"I fear no foe with thee at hand to bless, ills have no weight & tears no bitterness, . . I triumph still if thou abide with me" Amen!

Abide with me! fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide!
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me.
Oh Lord please ease my heavy burden
I need you at this hour of my life.
The God of the mountain top is also the God of the valley, even though I walk in the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil.
Help of the helpless oh abide with me.
Amen

Our age is an age of fornication and adultery. Every country is filled with immorality. Concerning this matter, so many have been drugged by “garlic” and have lost their sense concerning this sin. May this word sober us! We must stay away from today’s trend. Nothing insults God more than fornication, which damages the man created by God in His image. We all must flee our temper and our lust. Flee your temper! Flee your lust! It is not an insignificant thing to lose our temper or to give in to our lust. Indulging in these things may cause us to be burned. Thus, we need to heed this sober word, a word that will force us to stay close to Christ. We need to pray, “Lord, I have temper and lust within me. But, Lord, I thank You that I have You in my spirit. Lord, I don’t want to stay with my physical lust or my psychological temper. I want to stay in my spirit with You, dear Lord Jesus. ” Here is our salvation, our rescue, our holiness. Day and night we must stay with the Lord Jesus in our spirit, looking to Him, contacting Him, and trusting in Him.

The instrumental version of this wonderful hymn was playing when I received word of my friend's passing. It reminds me that the troubles of this life no longer have any hold on a Christ follower when they pass into the presence of Jesus, who has promised us that we will indeed abide with Him in glory!
